Giving Artfully

Giving Artfully (www.givingartfully.com) is a web page I created about a year ago to connect crafters with handcrafted volunteer opportunities. I created version 1.0, not really knowing the need and acceptance by the crafting community. Within a year, there are over 2700 committed donations and have posted over 80 projects for organizations around the world.

My first logo was something I created on my own using power point....

With the growth of Giving Artfully, I needed to make my website more dynamic and upgraded to a new version earlier this month. With an upgraded and improved website, I wanted to create a new look for my logo. So, I went on Elance and hired someone to help create a new logo. Unfortunately, perhaps due to a communication gap and the designer not truely understanding my vision, I am not thriled with the final product.

So, when I saw this class being offered on SkillShare, I thought it would be a great opportunity to improve my logo - to make it more for what I stand for and believe in. I'm excited to take on this task so it better defines Giving Artfully and the vision I have for this website.
